Yes, #Trump hijacked the celebration of #America250 to assail his “enemies”, falsely claim a rigged election in 2020, and make up a threat by “Communists”
“Have you no decency, Donald?”
But there was also the possibility that came out of gatherings across the US for unity rather than division
[Lyrics:]
[Verse 1]
Lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland
Got a head-on collision smashin’ in my guts, man
I’m caught in a crossfire that I don’t understand
But there’s one thing I know for sure, girl
I don’t give a damn for the same old played-out scenes
Baby, I don’t give a damn for just the in-betweens
Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul, I want control right now
You better listen to me, baby
[Pre-Chorus]
Talk about a dream, try to make it real
You wake up in the night with a fear so real
You spend your life waiting for a moment that just don’t come
Well, don’t waste your time waiting
[Chorus]
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand as the price you’ve gotta pay
We’ll keep pushin’ till it’s understood
And these badlands start treating us good
[Verse 2]
Workin’ in the fields till you get your back burned
Workin’ ‘neath the wheel till you get your facts learned
Baby, I got my facts learned real good right now
You better get it straight, darling
Poor man wanna be rich, rich man wanna be king
And a king ain’t satisfied till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight, I wanna find out what I got
[Pre-Chorus]
Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these
[Chorus]
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand as the price you’ve gotta pay
We’ll keep pushin’ till it’s understood
And these badlands start treating us good
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
[Verse 3]
For the ones who had a notion, a notion deep inside
That it ain’t no sin to be glad you’re alive
I wanna find one face that ain’t looking through me
I wanna find one place, I wanna spit in the face of these
[Chorus]
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand as the price you’ve gotta pay
Keep movin’ till it’s understood
And these badlands start treating us good

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds are no ordinary group of musicians. Across four decades and 17 studio albums they have established themselves as one of the most exciting, influential and progressive bands on the planet. Albums including The Boatman’s Call (1997), No More Shall We Part (2001), Push the Sky Away (2013) and their most recent Ghosteen (2019) have firmly cemented Cave’s position as one of the most acclaimed and sophisticated songwriters of his generation. Over the years, the Bad Seeds have harboured some of alternative music’s most celebrated and idiosyncratic musicians including Mick Harvey, Blixa Bargeld, Kid Congo Powers, Barry Adamson and the late, great Conway Savage. The current line-up of the group features the vital presence of shamanic multi-instrumentalist Warren Ellis alongside Martyn Casey (bass), Thomas Wydler (drums), Jim Sclavunos (percussion) and George Vjestica (guitar). A band apart, right from the very beginning, the Bad Seeds have always sounded like nobody else on earth.

https://www.youtube.com/watch/Z3DaEKIrBBA Bill Maher says America’s 250th is still worth celebrating | GZERO World with Ian Bremmer
As America turns 250, Bill Maher reflects on patriotism, polarization, and why the country is still worth celebrating.
America turns 250 at a moment of extraordinary political division. Trust in institutions is low, debates over patriotism have become increasingly partisan, and many Americans struggle to agree on even the country’s basic story. In this episode of GZERO World, Ian Bremmer sits down with comedian and political commentator Bill Maher to discuss what America should celebrate—and what it should learn from—as it reaches this historic milestone.
Maher argues that patriotism shouldn’t belong to one political party and that Americans can acknowledge the country’s failures without losing sight of its achievements. The conversation also explores the future of the Democratic Party, the rise of political polarization, whether ideological purity is costing Democrats elections, and why Maher believes engaging with people you disagree with is essential to a healthy democracy.
The discussion also turns to Donald Trump’s second term and the resilience of America’s constitutional system. While Maher remains critical of Trump’s conduct, he argues that Congress, the courts, and even members of Trump’s own party have demonstrated that the country’s checks and balances continue to matter. Throughout the interview, one theme keeps resurfacing: America has always been imperfect, but its strength lies in its ability to debate, adapt, and keep moving forward.

https://www.youtube.com/watch/z6XELXZbrV0 Why The Beatles Stopped Touring
Before fame, The Beatles were one of the tightest live bands in the world, holding crowds in Hamburg and Liverpool for hours each night. But when the screams drowned out the music, the joy started to fade.
John Lennon said the band found new life in the studio, where they could finally hear themselves again and make music that truly expressed who they were.
